That high school football game at Highline Memorial Field on Saturday, May 7 will not be a spring training scrimmage-it will be a movie scene.

Up to 60 players from Evergreen and Highline High schools in full football gear will be involved in scenes for a movie entitled "Safety Not Guaranteed."

The on-field action will feature a kick-off, run back and blocking---but no tackling.

The film crew plans to use the stadium from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Saturday.

The movie stars Aubrey Plaza, who plays the uninspired intern on TV's "Parks and Recreation." Other stars are Mark Duplass from the independent movie "Mark Duplass," Jake Johnson, last seen in "No Strings Attached" and Kristen Bell, also known as TV's Veronica Mars.

Highline and Evergreen cheerleaders will be doing their thing on the sidelines, as will the Highline band and concession-selling Kiwanians.

And about 200-250 extras will be populating the visitor side stands. The main actors will be filmed in the stands during the game, possibly rubbing elbows with the lucky extras.

"This is a great opportunity to participate in the creation of a movie, and maybe see yourself on the silver screen," location manager Dave Drummond declared.

Drummond is also offering educational opportunities to drama or video production students interested in the filmmaking process or yearbook and journalism students who want to cover the event. Teachers should contact Drummond at 425-269-3396 or dave@drummondmedia.com.

Although the leads are established Hollywood stars, the remaining cast and crew are local filmmakers. Besides Highline Field, they plan to film in Seattle, Ocean Shores and the Pacific Coast.

The production company supplied a synopsis of the film:
"A trio of magazine employees are sent to a small coastal town to investigate a classified ad seeking a partner for time travel. Darius (Plaza,) a young cynical intern poses as a candidate to accompany Kenneth (Duplass,) a paranoid but compelling loner, on his journey.

"But her motivations become confused when she develops feelings for him...and begins to wonder whether he actually does have a time machine."

According to Highline Schools spokeswoman Rexanne Graham, Highline was recommended as a movie location following the successful filming at Highline High School of the movie "The Day My Parents Became Cool." Discerning filmgoers recall that film featured the debut of a pink-haired, punked-up Superintendent John Welch.
